Dynamically nested angular material menu

Question

Please tell me how I can solve the following problem: I need to implement a dynamically created menu with different nesting levels depending on the data model object. At the moment, using recursion, we managed to create the menu as such, however, there is a problem of assigning the attribute [matMenuTriggerFor] for, directly, the submenu. The problem is that all subsequent submenus in fact refer to the very first, so when you hover over any of the submenus, it causes a "flip" to the original one (example on image: menu, which includes elements: Device, Extension, Queue, Queue member (with submenu elements)). Thus, for a fraction of seconds, I see the other submenu frame (example on image: submenu Grouped list), after which the very first becomes active. Of course, maybe I didn’t do everything right, so I’m turning here. Help me please. Thank you all.

As a result, it turned out, relying on several similar problems with others. The examples from HERE (dynamic nested menu example) and from HERE (the problem with mat-menu hides immediately on opening) helped to figure it out (in the last example it was enough just to update zone.js by npm)
